How can I mix 2 sound channels?

I would like to have 2 sound channels. each sound channel has its own volume control. There is also a control to pan between the 2 sound channels. I have an example attached. I am looking to add the ability to pan between the two sounds. mix2.fla

var balbounds:Rectangle=new Rectangle(balgroove_mc.x, balgroove_mc.y, balgroove_mc.width, 1 );
Bal_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startdragvolumebb);
Bal_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, stopdrag);
function startdragvolumebb(myevent:MouseEvent):void{
	myevent.target.startDrag(false, balbounds);
}
Bal_mc.buttonMode=true;



var myvolumebounds:Rectangle=new Rectangle(volumegroove_mc.x, volumegroove_mc.y, 1, volumegroove_mc.height);
volume_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startdragvolume);
//volume_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, stopdrag);
volume_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopdrag);
volume_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, stopdrag);

function startdragvolume(myevent:MouseEvent):void{
	myevent.target.startDrag(false, myvolumebounds);
}
function stopdrag(myevent:MouseEvent):void{
	myevent.target.stopDrag();
	}
	
	playbutton1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,player1);
		function player1(event:MouseEvent){
			
var myChannel:SoundChannel;
var newSetting:SoundTransform = new SoundTransform();
var snd:Sound = new b1();
myChannel= snd.play(0,9999);

stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, everyframe);
function everyframe(myevent:Event):void{
	var newvolume:Number = 1-((volume_mc.y-volumegroove_mc.y)/115);
	newSetting.volume=newvolume;
	myChannel.soundTransform=newSetting;
}
		}
		
		
		
		
		var myvolumebounds2:Rectangle=new Rectangle(volumegroove_mc2.x, volumegroove_mc2.y, 1, volumegroove_mc2.height);
volume_mc2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startdragvolume2);
volume_mc2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopdrag);
volume_mc2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, stopdrag);

function startdragvolume2(myevent:MouseEvent):void{
	myevent.target.startDrag(false, myvolumebounds2);
}

	
	playbutton2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,player2);
		function player2(event:MouseEvent){
			
var myChannel2:SoundChannel;
var newSetting2:SoundTransform = new SoundTransform();
var snd2:Sound = new b2();
myChannel2= snd2.play(0,9999);

stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, everyframe2);
function everyframe2(myevent:Event):void{
	var newvolume2:Number = 1-((volume_mc2.y-volumegroove_mc2.y)/115);
	newSetting2.volume=newvolume2;
	myChannel2.soundTransform=newSetting2;
}
		}

I may have asked the question wrong, sorry. I would like to "fade" between the two sound channels. so if the slider is all the way to the left it would play the sound 1 loud and sound 2 would be muted but when you slide the slider all the way to the right sound 1 would be muted and sound 2 would be loud.

This is not "pan" that is volume control

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/media/SoundTransform.html#pan

The left-to-right panning of the sound, ranging from -1 (full pan left) to 1 (full pan right). A value of 0 represents no panning (balanced center between right and left).

Thanks. The problem I am having is that I have individual volume controls for the sounds on the left and volume control for the sounds on the right. But I would like the middle slider when all the way to the left play the sound 1 and when all the way to the right play sound 2

dgofman

how about "individual volume controls" the values should be change?
